I backed into the blue paint and hunched down like a goalie watching the action in his team's offensive zone across the rink.<BR/><BR/>It occurred to me to imagine the mindset of a visiting goalie. How must it feel to suit up for an NHL game and stand here, in the third period, with a shutout going? Then, as you watch your team pummel Moose or Kari with shots at the other end of the ice, and you wonder if you are going to have to make another save tonight to preserve your shutout, you hear a sound over your left shoulder. Your spirits are high and you believe in the future until this fateful moment with 10:54 to go in the third period with the score 4-0 in your favor, and the Nasty Nest reveals to you that in reality, you suck.<BR/><BR/>I hope you are all proud of yourselves for the irreparable emotional harm that you have caused to so many goalies over recent years. A man's ego cannot be saved by a shutout when he has been taunted in unison by a dozen morons.Razor Catch Preyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03295587180920939928noreply@blogger.com
